Today I woke up and my eyelids opened and I was thankful

I saw light seep in through my window and the sun was out,

It shown light on my book collection

that carries endless knowledge that I can read and learn, and I was thankful

I wiggled my toes and moved my legs and I thanked them

I turned over and on my side table saw a photo of my grandma and I

She passed away a few years ago and for the first time this morning I felt like I didn’t have something and then I remembered that at one point I did have her and I was thankful for having had her at all

And then I remembered all that she taught me in the time I did have her, so I thanked her for that

So I got up and decided to take my fur baby out on a walk and I got out of my home, that I am thankful to have, and I went down stairs that I’m blessed to be able to go down

And I walked to the nearby lake and I felt the wind and I saw it make ripples in the water and I was thankful for the natural art that it is

And I went through out my day thanking everything I have and everything I don’t have, for the things I have bring me comfort and the things I don’t have will teach me lessons
